Is it safe to take ibuprofen after having done vaser lipo? 3 weeks post

Ibuprofen, like other NSAIDs, can have a negative effect on the blood platelets, which play an important role in blood clotting.  For that reason, most surgeons prefer patients to be off those medications prior to surgery.  In my practice, I recommend that patients start taking an NSAID beginning the morning after surgery and use that as their primary pain reliever with prescription narcotics being reserved for severe pain or at night.  In short, yes, it is perfectly OK to take these medications 3 weeks after VASER lipo.

Hello,
In general, I advise my patients that they are okay to take ibuprofen after surgery. Not knowing your complete medical history, it is difficult to know specifically which complications your doctor is referring to. While it is certainly helpful that you are educating yourself, your surgeon is the one who can explain the specific complications they are concerned for.
You do not state what pain you wish to alleviate with the ibuprofen. If you are continuing to experience surgery-related pain three weeks after the procedure, your surgeon might help you sort out why you are experiencing pain this far out after your surgery.
Best wishes,

Three weeks post-op, Ibuprofen should be fine to take. However it is always best to consult your Doctor first.
